    Dear David and Family, Thank you for letting me know about Kathy. I was very sad to hear this news. We had many good chats over the years. I was honored to be her health insurance agent. Please let me know if you need any help with anything.
    My deepest sympathies. Judy Lindstrom
    (I knew sister Debbie very well, another sad story.)
